Fred Bear (Acoustic)
There I was, back in the wild again
I felt right at home where I belong
I had that feelin' comin' over me again
Just like it happened so many times before
The spirit of the woods is like an old good friend
It makes me feel warm and good inside
I knew his name & it was good to see him
Again 'cause in the wind he's still alive
Oh, Fred Bear, walk with me down the trails again
Take me back, back where I belong
Oh Fred Bear, I'm glad to have you at my side, my friend
And I'll join you in the big hunt before too long
It was kinda dark, another misty dusk
And it came from a tangle down below
I tried to remember everything he taught
Me so well I had to decide which way to go
Was I alone or in a hunter's dream?
The moment of truth was here & now
I felt his touch, I felt his guiding hand
The buck was mine, forevermore
Because of Fred Bear
I walk down these trails again
Take me back, back where I belong
Fred Bear, I'm glad to have you at my side, my friend
And I'll join you in the big hunt before too long
We're not alone when we're in the great outdoors
We got his spirit, we've got his soul
He will guide our steps, he'll guide our arrows home
The restless spirit forever roams
In the wind he's still alive
In the wind I hear Fred Bear
